Ingredients
  

  • 2 liters cream soda, chilled
  • ¼ teaspoon caramel extract
  • ¼ teaspoon butter extract
Butterscotch Cream Topping
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ cup butterscotch topping
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Equipment

  • Hand Mixer

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a large pitcher, mix the cream soda with the caramel and butter extracts. Set aside.
    A bottle of root beer is being poured into a dark brown plastic mug filled with vanilla ice cream, creating a root beer float. A red and white striped cloth is in the background on a light-colored kitchen counter.
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to whip heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
    A glass mixing bowl containing whipped cream is shown from above. A whisk with some whipped cream on it and a red and white striped kitchen towel are placed next to the bowl on a light gray countertop.
  3. Step 3: Add butterscotch topping and powdered sugar. Mix to combine.
    A glass mixing bowl contains wet and dry ingredients, including vanilla extract and powdered sugar, partially blended together. A red and white striped kitchen towel is placed on the counter next to the bowl, and a whisk with some mixture on it lays beside.
  4. Step 4: Pour the soda mixture into clear cups or mugs. Pipe butterscotch cream topping over the butterbeer.
    A clear glass mug filled with a brown, fizzy drink is being topped with whipped cream from a piping bag. Another filled mug is in the background, with a striped red and white cloth napkin nearby. The setting appears to be a kitchen with white tiled walls.
  5. Step 5: Serve and enjoy!
